Review of Crimewave (1985) by Abel D — 19 Sep 2013
Playing out like a demented cross of His Girl Friday and Three Stooges/Laurel and Hardy/Looney Tunes, this Coen/Raimi comedy certainly has merits even if it's jokes may not always hit a home run. A game cast of great character actors project a zany energy into the material while Raimi's direction and vivid use of colour both homages and mocks a lot of classic thrillers and noir potboilers by way of Stooges.
